Brittney Griner back in Russian court on cannabis charge

Brittney Griner is on trial for cannabis possession in Khimki, a town on the northern edge of Moscow. She was arrested at a Moscow airport in February. Her defense team challenged the state narcotics expert's analysis. The trial is adjourned until Thursday. If convicted, she could face 10 years in prison. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken last week called Sergey Lavrov to urge him to accept a deal for Grifer and Paul Whelan. They would be exchanged for the notorious arms trader Viktor Bout. Russia has made a "bad faith" response to the US government's offer.
